Dick Raaymakers (Raaijmakers) (Maastricht, 1 September 1930) is a Dutch composer, theater maker and theorist. He is known as a pioneer in the field of electronic music and tape music but he has also realized numerous music theater pieces and has published many theoretical essays.

 

Biography

Raaymakers studied the piano at the Royal Conservatoire (The Hague). From 1954 to 1960 he worked in the field of electro-acoustic research at Royal Philips Electronics Ltd. in Eindhoven. There, using the alias Kid Baltan, he and Tom Dissevelt, under the name Electrosoniks produced works of popular music by electronic means (which turned out to be the first attempts of their kind in the world). From 1960 to 1962 he then worked at the University of Utrecht as a scientific staff member. From 1963 to 1966, together with Jan Boerman, he worked in his own studio for electronic music in the Hague. Then, from 1966 until his retirement in 1995, he worked as a teacher of Electronic and Contemporary Music at the Royal Conservatoire (The Hague) and since 1991 also as a teacher of Music Theater at the Image and Sound Interfaculty, at the same conservatory.

For an extensive list regarding Dick Raaymakers life and work please refer to the article Chronology Work and Life of Dick Raaymakers.

 

Works

 

Raaymakers’ oeuvre covers a wide variety of genres and styles, varying from sound animations for films to extremely abstract pulse structures, from “action music” to infinite voice patterns, from electro-acoustic tableaux vivants to extracts of music theater. He is considered as someone who combines disciplines such as visual art, film, literature and theater with the world of music. Raaymakers has created numerous electronic compositions, “instructional pieces” for string ensembles, phono-kinetic objects, “graphic methods” for tractor and bicycle, “operations” for tape, film, theater, percussion ensemble, museum and performance, artworks for offices and conservatory, and many soundscape compositions and music theatre productions, including some for the Holland Festival and for theatre company Hollandia. His theoretical essays are evidence of his profound interest in special inter-media connections. For instance, in his latest publication Cahier M (2000) Raaymakers elaborated upon the connections he saw between the 19th-century French physiologist Etienne-Jules Marey, composer Pierre Boulez, architect Iannis Xenakis and the musical views of Piet Mondrian.

One of his most important books is The Method (1985), in which he describes, in an exact but also poetic way, how motion, cause and effect, and their perception are interrelated.

 

 

 

Awards

 

In the 1990s Raaymakers received several awards for his contribution to the development of visual arts and music in the Netherlands: in 1992 the lifetime’s achievement award from the Foundation for Visual Arts, Design and Architecture (BKVB) in Amsterdam, in 1994 the Matthijs Vermeulen Award from the Amsterdam Art Foundation and in 1995 the Ouborg Award for his lifetime’s achievement from the City of The Hague. In late 1995 the biennial “Festival in de Branding”, organized by the Wagenaar Foundation in The Hague, was dedicated exclusively to Raaymakers’ musical and visual work. In 2005 he received a lifetime's achievement award from the Johan Wagenaar Foundation and an honorary doctorate from the University of Leiden.

Frederik De Wilde acts on the border area between science, technology and art. The conceptual crux of his artistic praxis are the notions of the intangible, inaudible, invisible. It is this interstitial territory that Frederik De Wilde explores in his various works. Sometimes on the side of the technological, and often in the perceptual, conceptual, social—human—register, De Wilde's art is grounded in the interaction between complex systems, both biological and technological. Moreover, the indistinct, diffuse, 'fuzzy' arena where the biological and the technological overlap and commingle is a productive and favored ground for his projects / projections.

To realize this works, he collaborated with Groep-T, new media engineers at the University of Leuven (KUL), the robotics department of the University Brussels (VUB) and the Physics department of the University of Hasselt (UH), Rice University in Houston (USA), Karlsruhe University (DE), and currently NASA.

Frederik is a guest professor at Transmedia Brussels and a permanent artist in residence at the University of Hasselt.

Their visual art practice draws on archival material, environmental topics and ephemeral artefacts, such as lost forms of cinema: There is always a sense of anticipation in seeing ~ in the fields’ work because of its integrity, beauty and inventiveness, reflects independent producer Katie Nicoll.

Their installations are responsive, of modular appearance and often powered by solar energy, such as their work ume, which considers the transformation from winter to spring.

~ in the fields is an artistic partnership between artists Nicole Heidtke and Stefan Baumberger, founded in Edinburgh in 2005. Since then, they have received commissions for public artworks from across the UK, and in 2010 they won the Berlin University of the Arts Award for Interdisciplinary Art and Science for their work ink. They were also awarded the alt-w award for their research project floc, which was based on the bird island Bass Rock and gannets’ migration.

Nicole previously taught at the Bauhaus University of Weimar, Germany, founding the pioneering Masters programme in Media Architecture there. Stefan has conducted research at the Institute for Advanced Media Arts and Sciences, Ogaki, Japan. They are Artists-in-Residence at the University College London Environment Institute.

Nicky Assmann explores in her work how the body relates to objects and spaces and refers to the concept of "wearable space." The skin, both visible as invisible is a recurring metaphor in her work and is extended into the space. This phenomenological approach results in the use of different media, like wearable technology (embodied instruments), performance, soap film and light installations. With these spatial installations she creates dynamic and temporary spaces in which the sensorial experience takes a central point.

Her work was nominated for the StartPoint Prize 2011 & the Artificial Light Award on Reflection (2010). She has presented her work at V2_Institute and in exhibitions at 5 Days Off Media (Amsterdam), STRP Festival (Eindhoven), Future Textiles (Denmark), Biennale of Carrara (Italy) and performed at festivals like TodaysArt (The Hague), E-Pulse (Breda) and 5 Days Off (Amsterdam).

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Film Science and a Master in ArtScience from the Interfaculty of the Royal Conservatoire & the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague.

Gideon Kiers, David Kiers and Lucas van der Velden are the founding members of Telcosystems. Lucas van der Velden and Gideon Kiers studied at the Interfaculty Image and Sound, a department of the Royal Conservatoire and the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. David Kiers studied at the Sonology department of the Royal Conservatoire. All three live and work in Rotterdam.

In their audiovisual works, Telcosystems investigate the relationship between the behavior of programmed numerical logic and human perception of that behavior. They aim to integrate human expression and programmed machine behavior. This effort is manifested in immersive audiovisual installations, films, videos, soundtracks, prints and live performances. The software they write enables them to compose ever-evolving audiovisual worlds. Telcosystems’ installations and films focus on real-time, self-structuring, generative processes. In their live performances, they concentrate on interaction with these processes. Their work is the result of an ongoing search for their own language of non-referential image and sound, whose aesthetics is closely related to the technology they use. In interaction with machines, Telcosystems fuse the auditory and visual domains into a single immersive spatial experience that explores the limits of the human sensory apparatus.

Telcosystems’ works have been widely exhibited at museums, galleries and festivals in the Netherlands and abroad. Their film LOUDTHINGS won the Gus Van Sant Award for Best Experimental Film at the Ann Arbor Film Festival in 2009 and the Grand Prix at the 25 FPS festival in Zagreb, Croatia, in 2008.

Geert Mul is a Dutch installation artist. He received a degree in computer animation from the ArtEZ Institute of the Arts in Arnhem, the Netherlands, in 1990. From 1990 to 1993, he traveled to a number of countries, including Mexico and the United States, and lived in Tokyo. The audio and video recordings he made during these journeys were later exhibited at various Dutch arts venues. In the mid-1990s, Mul became one of the first VJs, creating video screenings combined with pop music for a Rotterdam dance club. These events grew into interactive video and audio environments, which he placed in a variety of contexts, from museums to pop festivals. In each of his installations, Mul addresses the function and specificity of the space the work will inhabit, whether it is a hectic dance club, an arts event, a museum or a public space. Since 2000, Mul has often worked on site-specific installations. His works have been widely exhibited in many countries, including the Netherlands, the United States, Italy, Spain, India, Japan, China and South Africa.
